Godās Gonna Cut You Down || A southern gothic mix
The Lordās gonna come for your first born son
His hairās on fire and his heart is burning
So go to the river where the water runs
Wash him deep where the tides are turning
This isnāt no land of comfort. The earth is tired, and she heaves her rattling breaths through the dry grass. Dust hangs like a shroud on your shoulders and settles on the scuff of your shoes. Here, thereās religion in the cracked pages of Scripture and in the rim of a whiskey bottle. Our father who art in Heaven, Heās got a harsh heart. Thereās bad blood in the bible; sins are not forgiven here, they are only absolved once the dues are paid. Here, grizzled men exhale their souls in cigarette smoke as they idle on the porch. Their venom is inside of slow smiles, as smooth as molasses. Here, women are sunken-eyed; theyāve got cleavers tied to their apron strings, vengeful and weary, faces hewn out of scrap iron. Nothing really lives here. The hoot owl whistles in the old cemeteries by dusk, but the real burial grounds are elsewhere- men find their graves at the bottom of the river, at the deepest hour of night. May they rest in sin indeed.
Donāt you lift him, let him drown alive
The good Lord speaks like a rolling thunder
Let that fever make the water rise
And let the river run dry
